My car has Foose Legends on it from the previous owner. I don't mind the looks of them even though they're chrome, but they are heavy. I weighed one rear with a 315/35r20 nitto at 76lbs. Since the tires are practically new I want to stick with 20" wheels. What are some options for lighter weight 20" wheels?

I will second APEX as quality. Depends, what do you want. To keep 20 inch wheel or is this for drag purposes? I got AR crossfires and they are one of the best budget 20 inch wheels you can get that are lightweight 20s that are flow formed.

Also how much you want to spend? Some guys spend thousands and I mean 4k + on wheels and tires. I think I spent 1200 on wheels with tax. Totally satisfied for 1200 bucks. Took almost 50 pounds off the car with still 20s on it. I lost about 12-13 pounds each wheel with just the the crossfires and general g max rs over stock wheels and p zeros. Just that 12 or so pounds is soooo much lighter. There are a few wheels that will drop into the very high teens or low 20s each in a 20 inch diameter but boy are you going to pay for them. Mine were 24 pounds roughly for the rears. Way better then the 32+ for factory wheels.

Yeah I'm not looking to spend alot, preferably $1500-1600 for the set. Its not for drag racing, just street/dd. I'd be happy with 20x11 with 315 weighing close to stock 20x9 275 wheel/tire setup.
